CHAPTER II. Awaking from his atu-
Br, Ilalney finds himself at sea Carlsen
orms him he has been kidnaped be
tanse. haying learned the object of the
xpedltlon, he might have divulged It and
frostrated the plana of the voyagera. He

Blny. He didn't trait the doctor,
tfcOBffn he thought he'd play fair about
tast sold. But St wag fanny, bli a
Muolrje; control.
"Ah I" The doctor appeared to dla
bUi the subject with tome relief.
Well," he went on, "are you open to
Feuon and food? I'm sorry about
your friends and folks nshore, but
you're not the first prodigal who hat
cme back with the fatted calf In
stead of hungry for It."
"That part of It Is all right," said
Xalney. There was no hcJp for the
situation, save to make the most of
tt and the best. "But I'd like to ask
ion a question."
"Go ahead. Hae n cigarette?"
Ralney would rather have taken It
from anyone ele, but the whirr of
burning tobacco, ns Carlsen lit up,
gave htm an Irresistible rnivlng for n
moke. Besides, It wouldn't (In for
the doctor to know he iiiMnisleil him.

pettishly. He took the rlj-nrptti1, ac
cepted the light, and Inhaled crate
fully. "What's the question?" nsknl t'nil
an. "You weren't on lice lust trip. Von
weren't In on tin- original den J. ItuL I
find you tlnltiB nil the talking, iiiuklm:
me offers. You drugged me on jour
wn Impulse. Where's the skipper?
How does lie stund In this mutter?"
"You're unking n good drill for nil
outsider. It seems to me. Itnluey. I
came to you partly as jour doctor.
But I speak for the riiplnlii ami the
crew. Don't worry about that."
"And Lund?" Hiiinej had gathered
that the doctor resented I.unil.
Cnrl&en's eyes narrowed.
"Lund will he taken enre of," he
said, and, for the life of him. Itnlney
could not Judge the statement for
threat or friendly promise. "As for
my status, I expect to he Captain
Slmms' son-in-law as soon us the trip
la over."
"AH right," said Halney. ( 'arisen'
announcement surprised him. Some
how he could not place the girl as the
doctor's fiancee.
He rose and limbed fniv ami huudx.
Carlson left the cabin. The main
room was empty when Italney en
tered, but there wan a plnie set at the
table.
The main cuhin won well appointed
In hardwood, with led cushions on the
transoms and a creeping plant or so
hanging here and there. A canary
chirped up nnd broke Into rolling song.
It was nil homy, Innocuous. Yet he
had been drugged at the snme table
not so long before. And now he wan
pledged a share of ungathered gold. It
was a far cry back to his desk In the
Times ofD.ce.
A Japanese entered, sturdy, or
white-clad figure, deft, polite, Incuri
ous. He had brought In some ham
and eggs, strong coffee, sliced canned
peaches, bread and butter. He served
Cjs Ralney ate heartily, feeling hit
old self coming back with the food,
specially with the coffee.
"Thanks, Tamada," he said as he
pushed aside his plate at last.
"Everything arrlght, air?" purred
the Japanese.
Balney nodded. The "sir" was r
assuring. He was accepted as a some
body aboard the Karluk. Tamada
cleared away swiftly, and Ralney felt
for hla own cigarette. Some one was
snoring In a stateroom off the cabin,
and he fancied by Its volume It was
Lund.
It was a divided ship's company,
after all. For he knew that Land,
handicapped with his blindness, would
live perpetually suspicious of Slmms.
And the doctor was against Lund.
Ralney' own position was a paradox.
He started for tho compantonway,
and a alight sound made htm turn, to
face the girl. She looked at htm cas
ually a Ralney, to hla annoyance,
flushed.
"Good afternoon," said Ralney, "Are

to marry Carlsen. He was an out
alder. Carlsen had told him that. So
she seemed to regard him, Imperson
ally, without Interest. It piqued htm.
"Mr. Lund Is In the first mate'
cabin," said the girl, Indicating a door.
"Mr. Bergstrom, who was mate, died
at seo last voyage. Doctor f'arlsen
act as navigator with my father, but
he has another room."
She passed him and went on deck.
Carlsen was acting first mate as well
as surgeon. That meant he had sea
manship. Also that they hud taken
In no replacements, no other men to

hunters who knew the secret, or a
part or It. It was unusual, but Italney
shrugged his shoulders and rapped
on the door of the cabin.
It took loud knocking to waken
Lund. At Inst he roared n "Come In."
Itnlney found him sealed nn the
edge of his hunk, diessed In his under
clothes, his glashes In place. Ralney
wondered whether he slept In them.
Lund's uncanny Intuition seemed to
rend the thought He tapped the
lenses.
"Hate to tnke them ofT." he said.
"Light hurts my ejes, though the op
tic nerve Is dead. Seems to strike
through. How'ri' e itinkln' out?"
"Yon know they drugged me,"
Itnlney ended his recital of the Inter
view he hud hud with the doctor.
"Knockout drops? I guessed If.
That doctor's slick. Well, ynu'c not
much fault to find, have ye? Carlsen
talked .sense Here you are on the
road to a fortune. I'll see yore
share's u fair one. There's plenty. It
ain't n had billet you're fallen Into,
my lad. Hut I'll look out for ye. And
I'll need je."
He lowered his voice mysteriously.
"Yo're a writer. Mister Ilalney.
You've got brains. You can see which
way n thing's heading. You've heard
enough. I'm blind. I've bin done dirt
once aboard the Karluk, and I don't
aim to stand for It ag"ln.
"I ain't got eyes. You have. Use
'em for both of us. I ain't asking ye
to tnke sides, exactly. Rut I've got
cause for heln' suspicious. I don't call
the skipper 'Honest' Slmms no more.
And I nln't stuck on thnt doctor. He's
too bossy. He's got the skipper un
der his thumb. And there's some
thin' funny nhout the skipper. He
ain't the same man. Mebhe It's his
conscience. Hut that doctor's rtmnln'
hlra."
"He's going to marry the captain's
daughter," said Ralney.
"Slmms" daughter? Cnrlsen goln'
to marry her? Urapt That may ac
count for the milk In the coconut."
His face became, crafty, and he
reached out for Ralnoy's knee, fo.ind
It a readily as If he had sight, and
tapped It for emphasl.
"That makes alt the more reason
for a lookln' out for things, matey,"
he went on, almost In a whisper. "If
they've played me once they may do
It ngin. And they've got the odds,
Mttln' aside my eye. But I can turn
a trick or two. Stick to me, an ni
see you git yore whack.
Til 'have yore bonk changed.
Yell come In with me. An' we'll
put otic an' one together. We'll be
mates. Don't forget they fixed yore
grog. I bad nothln' to do with that
I may be stranded, but. If the tide
rises "
He set the clutch of his powerful
fingers deep Into Ralney's leg above
the knee with a grip that left purple
braises there before the duy was over
"We two, matey," he salt "Now
you an' me'll have a tot of stuff that
ain't doped"
He moved about the little cabin
with an nstotindtng freedom and sure
ne&a, chuckling as he handled bottle
and glasses and measured out the
whisky nnd water.
"Wen yo're blind," he said, ram
slag his pipe roll tt black tobacco.

CHAPTER III.
Target Practice,
The Karluk was an elghtynve-ton
schooner, Cluster Fisherman type,
with a length of ninety and a beam
of twenty-live feet. Her enormous
stretch of canvas, spread to the limit
on all possible occasions by Captain
Slmms, was offset by the pendulum of
lead that made up her keel, and she
could slide through the seas ut twelve
knot on her best point of sailing
reaching the wind abaft her beam.
After Ralney had demonstrated at
the wheel that he had the mastery of
her and bad shown that he posiessed
ea-Iegs, Captain Slmms appointed
him second mate.
"We don't carry on as a rule," tho
kipper said. "But It'll give you a
rating and the right to eat In tho
cabin." He had not brought up the
subject of Ralney's kidnaping, and
Ralney let It go. There was no use
arguing about the Inevitable. The
rating and the cabin fare seemed of
fered as an apology, and be was will
ing to accept It.
Carlsen acted as first mate, and
Ralney had to acknowledge him effi
cient. He fancied the man must have
been a ship's surgeon, and eo picked
up his seamanship. A sailor named
Hansen was promoted to acting quar
termaster, und relieved Ralney. Carl
sen spent most of hi time attendant
on the girl or chatting with the hunt
ers, with whom he soon appeared on
terms of Intimacy.
The hunters esteemed themselves
above the sailors, as they were, In In
telllgence and earning capacity.
There were t-lx hunters and twelve
sailors, outside of a general roust
about and butt named "Sandy," who
cleaned up the forecastle and the
hunters' quarters, where the missed
apart, and helped Tamada. the cook.
In the galley with his pots und dishes.
"'Cordln' to the agreement." Lund
said to Italney. "the gold's to be split
Into a hundred shares. One for each
sallnrman, an' the chip In for the
bo. Two for the hunters, two for
the cook, four for Hergstrom, the first
mate, who died at sea. Twenty for
'ship's shnre.' Fifty shares to be split
between Slmms an' me."
"What's the 'ship's sharer" asked
Ralney.
"Repiesents capital lnestmenL
Matter of fact, It belongs to the gal,"
said Lund. ".Slmms gave her the Kar
luk. It's In her nnme with the Insur
ance." "Then he nnd his daughter get
forty-five shares, and you only twenty-five?"
"You got It right," grinned Lund.
"Slmms Is no philanthropist. It wa'n't
o easy for me to git enny one to go
in with me, son. I ain't the first man
to come trallln' In with news of a
strike. An' I hod nothln' to show for
It. Matter of fact, Honest Slmms was
the only one who didn't laff at me
outright.
